Situated near St. Moritz, Samedan is not only the capital of the Upper Engadin, but also the guardian of Engadin lifestyle.

Serving as a hub for the Rhaetian Railway, it is the ideal departure point for sporting activities and excursions into the beautiful landscapes of the region.

It's a winter sports destination too, but you'll need very warm clothes, as it's one of the coldest places in Western Europe: in February 2012, temperature fell to -35.1°C ( -31.2°F)!
